An incorporated business
Most suppliers and wholesalers require any business they work with to be legally 
incorporated. In fact, if you’re not incorporated, most wholesalers won’t show you 
their pricing or other details. That’s how important it is.
Remember, a dropshipping business is still a business. It should follow many of the 
same rules as a traditional business. Dropshipping may take place online, but it still 
needs to be conducted according to the law. 
If you don’t follow these important rules, you’ll run into problems. 
The bottom line: it’s best to be incorporated before you even 
reach out to suppliers.
